Okay, first some background. I have done DXM many times over the past couple years (since turning 18 ) with varying doses. The lightest being about 275 mg, and the highest being about 1100mg (3rd plateau :D for my body weight). My friend had only done DXM once before. Last little piece of background: our town has a big carnival downtown every year for the 4th of July, with a decent fireworks show and lots of cool carnival rides with lights and loud music and stuff.
We decided that DXM would be the drug of choice for July 4th, 2002. We arrived at the carnival at around 7:30 after smokin a little ganja. We walked around and familiarized ourselves with where everything was just to make sure we had a feel for the place. At about 8:30pm, we decided to start back towards my truck to get the Robitussin that we bought earlier in the day. We each chugged a 4 oz. bottle, which has 360 mg DXM each if I am not mistaken, at around 8:45pm. We hid out at my old high school to smoke another bowl after this. We then decided to head back towards the carnival. We decided to stop by my truck again to grab some air conditioning. As we sat there, we couldn't help but notice that the neon sign on the building we were parked by just wouldn't keep still. Not super intense, just a lil taste of the psychadelia to come.
We got back to the carnival at 9:45 or 10:00pm startin to feel pretty damn good. All of the lights were lit up nice and bright and the music was blastin. As we wandered around through the sea of people, walking became steadily more difficult, but a welcome challenge. The more we walked, the less normal our vision became
We decided to check out this hispanic (I think) music trio comprised of pan flute, guitar, and ukelele. Getting to this efficiently required walking through a thick crowd of people going the opposite direction to their flow. This was an incredible rush!! Without really even bumping into anyone, a force could be felt pushing against us as we walked through this mass of bodies. It was as if the universal powers didn't want us to go against the grain, but we did anyways! After that ordeal was over, we got a very Ecstasy like head-rush. This was when we realized that we were truly fucked up :D
We left the musicians to play their "Zelda running throuhg the forest" music, as we described it at the time, and decided to hit up the more well lit part of the carnival. We sat down across from the ride that had a gigantic ring of lights that filckered in various patterns. As the ride started go, the structure with the lights seemed to swell and breathe! It would seem very close to your face at one moment, and then it would be a tall ride again. Crazy. We then found a ride that was blastin some hard house music, so we sat very near the very large speaker for a lil while. Even though it seemed like we had been wandering around the carnival for hours, it had only been about a half hour. So now it's around 10:20-10:30pm. We headed back to my truck to grab some more air conditioning, knowing that DXM tends to raise body temperature quite a bit.
I happened to find some candy cane glowsticks in the console, so we blew each other's minds with them for a few minutes, to get ourselves pumped up for the fireworks. It was getting close to 11:00pm, so we knew the fireworks would be starting soon. We found a nice piece of grass to lay out on to watch the fireworks. And when they started, WEEEEEEEEEEEE!! It was so beautiful! All the sparkling reds, blues, oranges, whites! The ones that would blow up real big and then have the crackly after sparkles were the best. The initial burst of pink and red would expand beautifully towards you, and then the crakly white sparkles would come towards you and seem like they were gonna come down all the way to you! Very intense! After the fireworks we went back to wandering around the carnival and amusing ourselves by counting the mullets on the carnies
All in all I would have to say it was one of the best 4th of July's in my life, and I think my friend would agree with me on that one. Sorry for rambling so long. A post about a DXM trip sometimes just has to go on forever just like the trip it describes, I guess.
